Welcome to this immaculately presented home, offering multiple living and entertaining areas, with ample space for the whole family to gather and connect, or find their own retreat. Originally built in 1927, this home has been elegantly renovated and lovingly maintained by its current owner and is now ready to change hands for the first time in over 33 years. Superbly situated a short stroll from all the cafes, restaurants, shopping and amenities of the High Street strip, within walking distance of a selection of local primary schools and Belmont High, less than 10 minutes from the CBD, and moments from the Surfcoast Highway, this home promises the ideal family lifestyle.
Established gardens and an enchanting two-storey façade offer instant appeal on arrival. Stepping inside, high ceilings and polished timber floors highlight the home's timeless character. A central staircase serves as a focal point, allowing natural light to flood the entry hall, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The main living area at the rear of the home offers a spacious open plan layout with an effortless indoor-outdoor connection. Two living zones provide alternative areas to relax, one by the original brick fireplace for an ambient space on a cosy night, and a large lounge to gather with the family. The high end kitchen features a long island, beautiful European stone benchtops, modern appliances including 600mm oven, 750mm gas cooktop, dishwasher, classic subway tile splashback and chic pendant lighting. Centrally positioned to overlook the dining area, entertainers will love this space.
Upstairs, an additional living area offers a quiet space to retreat, with spectacular views across Geelong and built-in bar facilities, perfect for preparing your morning coffee to watch the sunrise, or evening nightcap while taking in the night-time skyscape. Equipped for modern comfort, split system heating and cooling on both levels is offset by a 6.5kW solar system for economical living.
The primary residence features four bedrooms, all with built in robes, including an upstairs main bedroom with ensuite. Bedroom two is on the top floor, while two generous ground-floor rooms are serviced by a bright family bathroom and laundry. A study nook and understairs storage add to the home's exceptional functionality. At the rear of the property, a detached self-contained studio features polished concrete floors, a woodfire heater, split system heating and cooling, kitchenette/laundrette and ensuite, offering a versatile space for guest accommodation, a teenager’s retreat, multi-generational living, or as a potential rental income opportunity.
Outdoors, the undercover alfresco provides ample room for dining and lounging zones, extending out to an open sun deck. The low maintenance lawn area offers a secure space for the kids or pets to play, with synthetic turf allowing for low maintenance upkeep. Rear access to a single garage accommodates off-street parking, with additional storage/workshop space.
Thoughtfully designed for the modern family, this move-in-ready home seamlessly combines classic style, contemporary functionality, and spacious living. Set in a low-maintenance environment, it offers the perfect balance, allowing you to make the most of your free time and vibrant surrounds.
